Happy 2018!!! I can’t believe it! Does anyone else feel like that year just flew by??

My sister’s birthday is in January and almost ever year we usually do a fun Gatsby/1020s themed party for either her birthday or on New Years Eve. This year, we’re having it on her actual birthday and we’ve got the perfect themed cocktail to serve to our guests!

YIKES! I remember when I was little I thought 30 sounded SO FREAKING OLD! I can’t believe I’ve finally hit the big 3-0! If I’m being honest, I was dreading turning 30 so much, not because the number scares me or the fact that my 20’s are behind me now…

What’s a great way to impress your guests at a party? FUN COCKTAILS! And easy, tasty cocktails at that! Something simple like a great bubbly and some fun stir sticks can easily take a plain, ordinary cocktail and turn it into INSTA-worthy drink that ALL your guests will love!

I’ve always loved planning. Whether it’s a Daddy Daughter Day in LA, a romantic date night out, a family vacation or a girls getaway weekend, I’m obsessed with planning each and every stop! From the moment we arrive till the moment we leave, I’ve got coffee, brunch, dinner, drinks, activities and travel all dialed in! Happy hour? Check! Pool Party? Check! Dinner with an outdoor patio and great ambiance? Double check! It might come off a little Monica from Friends but trust me, I do my research! Besides…. “I wish we would have winged it”-said no one ever.

Bumbu rum is aged up to 15 years and is handcrafted from a blend of sugarcane selected from eight countries throughout the West Indies and South America. This allows them to achieve an exceptional balance of smoothness in their rum, without sacrificing richness and complexity, making Barbados distillery’s rum among the best in the world.
